I just did with a family members OBI remotely

You can if you have set up Portforwarding to the Obi Webserver previously. (Which I did)

If not, you can try to Remote Desktop into a PC on that network and use that PC's browser to log in to the OBI.

If you do not know how to Remote Desktop, you can both download Teamviewer at

https://www.teamviewer.com/en/download/

and then swap USER ID and PW (shown on each others Teamviewer screen) and Remote Desktop through each other's PC into the OBI IP address.

and my father is not capable of performing these tasks himself. At least not reliably or a high risk of really messing up something.

mo832:
1. How do you set up port forwarding?

2. After setting up port forwarding, how do you log into the device remotely and do the fw update procedure?

hapollo:
Check your router's port forwarding section in the manual.

At this point, go for option 3. It's the least risky. Your dad should download Teamviewer QS, run it and just tell you the the user ID and Password so you can enter those credentials in your Teamviewer.

If you don't think your Dad can download and run a program, without risk, don't try it.

mo832:
For this particular task, I will use an alternate method.

For future knowledge and use (possibly for myself), I still would like to know the detailed steps, if you would be so kind :).
